“I plan every treatment individually and prioritise natural, healthy results.”

— Dr. Tuğçe Sümer Yılmaz · Periodontology Specialist

Oral hygiene and periodontal care cover professional cleaning, guidance and regular follow-up to prevent gum disease and maintain the results of previous treatment.

What is periodontal care?

It is a supportive programme to protect gum health over the long term. It consists of professional cleaning, assessment of gum condition and personalised home-care guidance, and is especially important for patients who have had periodontal treatment.

What does the programme include?

Professional cleaning at regular intervals, gum-pocket measurement, plaque control and a review of brushing and flossing techniques. The frequency is set according to your gum health.

Periodontal care at TSHEALTH CLINIC

A follow-up interval suited to your gum health is planned; the care programme is carried out under Dr. Tuğçe Sümer Yılmaz.

Home care tips

Brushing twice a day with the correct technique and cleaning between the teeth with floss or an interdental brush are the basic steps. Tartar in hard-to-reach areas is removed only by professional cleaning; home care and professional care complement each other.

The link between periodontal care and general health

Research shows that gum diseases are associated with conditions such as cardiovascular health and diabetes. Regular periodontal care is therefore important not only for oral health but also for protecting general health.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I have periodontal care?

It varies with your gum condition; many patients are advised every 3-6 months, and the interval can lengthen in healthy individuals.

Isn't home care enough?

Home care is essential, but tartar in areas you cannot reach can only be removed by professional cleaning; the two complement each other.

Does periodontal care prevent tooth loss?

Regular care keeps gum disease under control and markedly reduces the risk of tooth loss.
